PORTLAND The state is taking steps to fight the impact of climate change, but regardless of the measures put in place, the sea level is going to continue to rise, storms are going to intensify and coastal areas are going to be more susceptible to flooding, according to the baykeeper for Friends of Casco Bay.
“In some ways we are too late,” said Ivy Frignoca, who also is a member of Maine Climate Council’s Coastal and Marine working group. “What we have to do now is help solve some of the harm we have already done, the consequences and prepare for the future.”
